Well, the German Wikipedia says that a stable 1.0 came out in January.
It’s “only” a FUSE fs, but so is NTFS. I’ll do some testing with it.

That still leaves UID. I want it to “just work”[TM] and never encounter
any problems when I can least use them, and never have to check any file
attributes.

I’ll keep the uid and gid bit on the stack. I would disable the x bit
though. Executables are lime in DIR_COLORS, overriding every other
colouring (e.g. red archive, green text and purple media files). *g*
I’m more concerned about the behaviour of automounters. And I faintly
remember some user-centric setting as to what the default chmod of new
files is, so I would have to do some chmod -R from time to time.
